Governing ethical and effective behaviour of intelligent systems: a novel framework for meaningful human control in a military context

article
Unmanned systems are gaining a permanent position in the military domain; they are deployed where people are physically inadequate or at risk. Increasingly often these systems can also perform tasks independently, made possible by the strong advance of artificial intelligence. On cognitive tasks such as dealing with large amounts of data, understanding complex problems and rapid decision-making, they increasingly surpass people. However, this trend towards more autonomy raises the question: how do we as human beings maintain control over autonomous systems, who exerts that control and how do we justify it? In this article TNO presents a new framework for meaningful human control of autonomous (intelligent) systems.
